Beschreibung
You've probably heard the old saying, "Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime. ". The same basic principle applies to missions work. Too many churches and other missions organizations over-emphasize Relief Aid-no-strings-attached, handouts of vital supplies given in the immediate aftermath of a disaster. While necessary and lifesaving, Relief Aid is only a temporary fix. Once the funds dry up and the ground team leaves, the impoverished community is often no better off than they were before. In Teach a Man to Fish. , the authors illustrate the benefits of "wholistic transformational development," where-through engagement with the local church- the community is empowered to identify and carry out long-term sustainable solutions to meet its own needs. A few of the steps that "wholistic transformational development" includes are:. Give dignity to "the least of these". Address the root causes of poverty to provide solutions for the affected. Help the vulnerable to become empowered in their own communities. Filled with real-life stories from the authors' own experiences, Teach a Man to Fish. provides churches and missions organizations with a blueprint for helping people help themselves in order to create lasting change and long-term sustainability and independence.
